Review of Ireland in Tanzania and the Great Lakes sub-region strategy 2017-2021

The overall goal of Ireland in Tanzania and the Great Lakes sub-region strategy (2017-2021) was to promote Ireland’s values and interests in Tanzania and the wider region, building upon Ireland’s development cooperation programme to strengthen political, economic and diaspora relationships and ensure an effective service to Irish citizens in Tanzania and other countries of accreditation.

The strategy also identified a number of ‘New Directions’, the first of which placed the positioning of gender equality and women’s empowerment at the centre of their work.

This review and report is an assessment of the achievements of the programme associated with the strategic focus on gender equality and women’s empowerment and also examined how effective and adaptive the management approaches and systems put in place were, to deliver the priorities on Women and Girls.
